scared and confused

I have these little moles growing on my penis . Besides that the woman that I sleep with, I think that shes causing like rug burns on my penis near the head. What is it and what do I do ? Should I be worried?

Hi,

Nothing can be said with surety without having a look at the lesions. This could be folliculitis or molluscum contagiosum.

MC can affect any area of the skin but is most common on the body, arms, and legs. It is spread  through direct contact or shared items such as clothing or towels.

In adults, molluscum infections are often sexually transmitted and usually affect the genitals, lower abdomen, buttocks, and inner thighs. In rare cases, infections are also found on the lips, mouth, and eyelids.

The virus can spread through contact with contaminated objects, such as towels, clothing, or toys. In people with normal immune systems, the disorder usually goes away on its own over a period of months to years.

Individual lesions may be removed surgically, by scraping, de-coring, freezing, or through needle electrosurgery. Surgical removal of individual lesions may result in scarring. Medications, such as those used to remove warts, may be helpful in removal of lesions, but can cause blistering that leads to temporary skin discoloration.

Avoid direct contact with the skin lesions. Do not share towels with other people.
A visit to your doctor will help confirm the diagnosis.

Let us know if you need any other information.
